AeroGauge: Recompiled is a native port of the Nintendo 64 racing game AeroGauge for Windows, Linux and Android. It runs your own copy of the game in a native window rather than through an emulator.

An in-game settings screen covers resolution, widescreen, HUD placement, anti-aliasing, draw distance and control remapping, and there are optional extras such as full-course geometry and an Easy Turbo assist. Mods and RT64 texture packs are supported but still experimental. The Android build has touch controls.

It is still a pre-release. The download contains no game data. It needs a ROM of the USA release or the Japanese Rev A release, dumped from your own cartridge.

## How to set it up

1. Extract the archive for your system to a folder.
2. Put your ROM in that folder, named `AeroGauge (USA).z64` or `AeroGauge (Japan) (Rev A).z64`.
3. Windows: run `aerogauge_modern.exe`. Linux: run `./aerogauge_modern`, and optionally run `./install_linux_launcher.sh` once to add it to the applications menu.
4. Choose Start Game in the launcher. Settings open in game with Escape, F10 or the controller's Back button.
5. Android: install the APK, open AeroGauge Recompiled, tap Import ROM and choose your ROM, then tap Play AeroGauge.
